ASBESTOS MEDICAL Any employees who start work with asbestos after 1st May 2015must first undergo amedical examination unless a suitable examination has been carried out in the previous two years (for licensed work) or three years (for non-licensedwork). Work is classed as licensed if employees are undertaking regular asbestos demolition/stripping work. Employees will need follow up examinations every two years whilst the exposure continues. Non-licensed work will generally apply to most construction workers whomay come into occasional contact with asbestos. Employees will need follow upmedical examinations at intervals of nomore than three years whilst the exposure continues. Includes:

AUDIOMETRY Audiometric testing is mandatory for all employees who are exposed to noise levels of 85dBa or above daily. It is recommended that audiometric testing commences before the employee is exposed to noise in order to set a baseline. An audiometric test should then be undertaken annually for the first two years, then every three years after that. Includes: • Audiometry assessment • Ear examination • Screening questionnaire

BIOLOGICAL MONITORING If an employee is exposed to chemicals during their daily employment, then they must undertake biological monitoring in order to assess and limit the amount of chemicals they’re exposed to. Biological monitoring should be undertaken when there is a risk that chemicals are absorbed through the skin, where controls rely on the use of personal protective equipment and if an employee uses hazardous chemicals during their daily employment. Includes: • Biological monitoring kit (urine) The employee will then send their urine sample to the laboratory for testing in our pre-paid packs. If the test results show that there is an above trace we will advise a re-test and work with them to advise their control methods.

BLOOD TESTING Certain industries or job roles may

require their employees to undergo blood testing to either monitor their exposure to certain substances or to coincide with a course of injections that provide immunity to certain illnesses.
